They’re Kind of a Big Deal

Not only did senior forward Ryan Wittman’s buzzer-beating 3-pointer in overtime save the day for Cornell, but it also gave him 301 for his career –– the only Ivy League player in history to earn this distinction. His 29 points on the day also moved him to 16th all-time in Ancient Eight scoring, with 1,623. Meanwhile, Wittman’s partner in crime on the day, senior guard Louis Dale, moved within two assists of Cornell’s record with his seven dishes.

Guess Who’s Back

Playing in his first game since late November due to a calf injury, senior forward Alex Tyler picked up five points, four rebounds and two blocks in his return to the court. The tri-captain gave no indication that he was still hurting, as he performed a very acrobatic maneuver into some empty courtside chairs in order to maintain Cornell’s possession of the basketball at 9:18 in the first half.
